I guess you would call them "Sketch Notes"

I often take notes based on what I'm learning -- either from what I read, or during lectures I attend.  I have always done it, and I'm sure it helps me to focus and to process what I'm learning.  These were notes I made while reading a book called "But I'm not a Reading Teacher" by Amy Benjamin.  These are a little more polished than the once I typically do, since I shared them with a book group I'm part of.
